Hello my name is ruben and i ride a 2006 fatboy. I work as an ase automotive technician. My fatboy recently developed an issue with the left turn signal and i believe it is related to the front only because i unplug the rears with no change. The left turn signal will sometimes not come on and sometimes it does and works normally. Other times it comes on flashes normally and then starts flashing fast about a minute then shuts off. Seems like a ground issue but that would mean left and right have completely seperate grounds. I really need a wiring diagram before i just rip the bike apart. Can anyone help me or tell where i can get a wiring diagram on line please???? Thank you.

Hi there! You will get a lot more help if you post your problem in a sub forum.
A service manual for your bike will be your best friend.

Welcome to the Forum! You'll be spending most of your time in the Softail section of the Forum. Left turn signal issues seem to be the problem of the month.
